I was led to believe that deal was only for Hollywood Video games and not Game Crazy, right? Good snag on both accounts.

Are you sure Maken X was a spin off of the Mega Ten series Tim? I don't see any indications, but you can correct me if I'm wrong. I know the game was made by Atlus, but I still see no resemblance.

Correct. Sale is good at Movie Gallery, tho.

Yes I'm sure. Same dev team, same publisher, same concept artist, same themes. The only thing missing is the name on the box.

Picked up Wario World on the Gamecube. Looked like some good fun, and it was, until I realized that the whole game was “Rinse, lather, repeat”. Glad I picked it up with store credit only and didn’t pay a dime for it.

Congrats on Persona 4! See ya in 90 hours.

Got Sonic Adventure off the Gooz. Yeah, nothing too big here. You know what this game needs? A fucking map.

isnt that the first sonic game that introduced Police officers with guns and a stand off with a water monster. back in '99, i knew sonic would never be the same again after that unskipable cut scene. lol. its a good game though.

Yes haha. A good game with some serious problems. All everyone has side for years is to just make a game with all the Sonic (and Shadow) stages, no or just a brief setup, and let us play more of those. Fuck tails, and big the cat, and all these other stupid things that play really poorly.

They need to just make a 2.5D XBLA/PSN Sonic game. Sonic's gameplay just isn't suited for a $60 retail game anymore but people would buy it up at $10-15.

I picked up The Dark Spire for $10 brand spanking new with soundtrack at Gamestop (sorry Darrin) this weekend.

Also a heads up for anyone looking for good 360 games on the cheap, next month Capcom is releasing a Dead Rising/Lost Planet/DMC4 bundle for $40.

Picked up "Guilty Gear 2: Overture" for 360 for under $15 used at Game Crazy

It's not a bad ass fighting game, now it's like a strategic Dynasty Warriors clone....sad, but I knew what I was walking into. Just have to give a chance since I liked the series, especially for that low of a price.
